Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCurrent Laboratory Biosecurity for Handling Pathogenic VirusesI Made Artika, Chairin Nisa Ma’roefThe recent emergence of lethal viruses such as Ebola raises some concern about the possibility of the viruses being used as biological weapons. The application of pathogenic viruses as biothreat agents in the past is well documented. Although their use in warfare is currently prohibited by the Biological and Toxin Weapon Convention, their potential use in bioterrorism is a global … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 6 Apr 2018 · 10,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInflammatory Effects of Co-Exposure to Heavy Metals (Cd and Pb) and Respiratory Viruses (229E, OC43, and H3N2) on IL-6 and IL-8 Responses in U87 Glioblastoma CellsHyeokjun Yun, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimCo-exposure to heavy metals and viruses can pose threats to cellular health by increasing cytotoxicity and inflammatory cytokine expression. We aimed to elucidate the interactions between these factors inhuman glioblastoma cells (U87). U87 cells were exposed to influenza A virus (H3N2), coronaviruses OC43 and 229E, and heavy metals Cd and Pb. Cell viability and cytotoxicity were assessed through WST-8 and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Jul 2025 · 5,505 accessesView PDFCite

AlqahtaniSaudi Arabia is one of the most important countries as a source of horses in the world. This study was applied on the horses in Najran area, southwest Saudi Arabia. Horses were screened for three arthropods borne viral diseases; African horse sickness (AHS), West Nile Virus (WNV) and Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) as well as one bacterial disease, brucellosis. Ninety … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 24 Apr 2020 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuadratic Discriminant Analysis of Dengue Viruses Disease Incidence in PalembangYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Marieska VerawatyPalembang is classified as a city that has tropical climate with abundant rainfall, even in the driest month. These characteristics indicate that the city has a high potential for the occurrence of dengue virus disease. The areas of incidence of dengue virus disease in Palembang can be classified into five areas; South, Center, North, West and East. The aim of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 30 May 2017 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEpidemiological Models Applied to Viruses in Computer NetworksJos R.S. Piqueira, Betyna F. Navarro, Luiz H.A. MonteiroTo investigate the use of classical epidemiological models for studying computer virus propagation we described analogies between computer and population disease propagation using SIR (Susceptible-Infected-Removed) epidemiological models. By modifying these models with the introduction of anti-viral individuals we analyzed the stability of the disease free equilibrium points. Consequently, the basal virus reproduction rate gives some theoretical hints about how to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSevere and Fatal Influenza Cases in Russia in 2014-2015Svetlana V. Svyatchenko, Alexander G. Durymanov, Ivan M. Susloparov et al.This paper aims to characterize herd immunity of the population inhabiting Asian part of Russia before influenza epidemic and to describe influenza viruses isolated from severe cases including cases with fatal outcomes in the 2014-2015 epidemic season. HI test enabled us to study 3888 serum samples from healthy individuals including 1939 samples collected from poultry farm workers. We showed that … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2016 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
